What is recorded here

Enclosure in Lismacrory is an enclosure in Lismacrory, County Tipperary, Ireland. The 1840 Ordnance Survey map shows a circular enclosure on the west-facing slope, but later editions omit it. The 2002 inventory records no visible trace at ground level. It may be the mount called LismcRory in the 1654-6 Civil Survey, although other local monuments could match that name.

Situated on the W-facing slope of a hill with a nearby ringfort (TN008-020----) to the E. Depicted on the 1840 ed. OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure but not indicated on subsequent editons of the OS 6-inch maps. This may have been the monument recorded in the Civil Survey of 1654-6 where it describes a 'mount called LismcRory', although there are other monuments within the townland which may have been the aforementioned 'mount' (Simington 1934, vol. 2, 347). Not visible at ground level. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 09 January 2012
